Attention Parents

Due to budgets cuts many "Summer School Programs" are being cut.

Students with IEP's attend "Extended School Year Programs" which are not being cut, however ESY programs are being consolidated. This means your child may have to attend a different school for ESY.

Please check your IEP to see if ESY was recommended.  Contact your school to be sure your child is on the list.
